Shropshire Council is working to make Shropshire a great place to live, learn, work, and visit – we want to innovate to thrive. To make that ambition a reality, we need to understand what our towns and communities need in order to make them better places for all. Our Place Plans – of which there are 18 across the county – paint a picture of each local area and help all of us to shape and improve our communities. Place Plans are documents which bring together information about a defined area. The information that they contain is focussed on infrastructure needs, such as roads, transport facilities, flood defences, schools and educational facilities, medical facilities, sporting and recreational facilities, and open spaces. They also include other information which can help us to understand local needs and to make decisions. This wider information includes things like housing needs in light of population changes, and environmental issues in light of development. In an ideal world, we would be able to support all of the infrastructure needs within the 18 Place Plan areas of Shropshire. However, funding restrictions mean that we have to make some difficult decisions and prioritise the infrastructure that is most important. Place Plans help us to do this. The aim of the Place Plans is: • To enable Shropshire Council and its partners, working closely with local Elected Members and Town and Parish Councils, to deliver the infrastructure needs of our communities. The objectives of the Place Plans are: • To develop a clear picture and understanding of the Place Plan area. • To identify and prioritise infrastructure needs within the Place Plan area. • To identify lead partners, supporting partners, and funding opportunities (where possible) to deliver those infrastructure needs. • To feed in to the Strategic Infrastructure Implementation Plan for the county as a whole. • To feed in to Shropshire Council’s Corporate Plan and Service Plans. 3 There are 18 Place Plans in Shropshire, covering the following areas: • Albrighton • Bishop’s Castle • Bridgnorth • Broseley • Church Stretton • Cleobury Mortimer • Craven Arms • Ellesmere • Highley • Ludlow • Market Drayton • Minsterley and Pontesbury • Oswestry • Shifnal • Shrewsbury • Wem • Whitchurch The Place Plans also include the wider hinterlands around each of these towns or key centres. In this way, everywhere in the county is included within a Place Plan. Place Plans are reviewed regularly, and as such are ‘live’ documents informed by conversations with Town and Parish Councils, and with infrastructure and service providers. This document is the 2019/20 version of the Oswestry and Surrounding Area Place Plan. 4 1. List of Projects 1.1 Data and information review The infrastructure project list in the table below is based on information submitted to Shropshire Council by Town and Parish Councils in each Place Plan area. This information is then tested against data held by the Council, and further informed by consultation with a range of infrastructure providers. By gathering this information, we have been able to understand more clearly the needs of each Place Plan area, and to use this information to make some difficult decisions about prioritisation of projects. For the Oswestry and Surrounding Area Place Plan, a review of information has shown that key infrastructure issues are: • Development of Oswestry Innovation Park - 22.7ha of strategic employment land to drive long term sustainability in Oswestry and create the conditions for employment growth. • Improvements to the strategic road network at Mile End to unlock planned and future housing and employment development opportunities. • Provision of new housing through the Oswestry Sustainable Urban Extension with up to 800 housing units plus mixed-use development proposed. • Potential for a mixed use development (including key worker accommodation) at Park Hall. • Development of innovative healthcare opportunities with RJAH Orthopaedic Hospital. • ICT / Broadband improvements to meet demands from new development and economic growth (including rural and other remote parts of the Place Plan Area). • Electricity supply upgrade to support new development, along with additional water and sewage capacity (including in rural and other remote parts of the Place Plan Area). 5 1.2 Prioritisation of projects Following collation and assessment of this information, the difficult task of prioritisation of projects can be undertaken. Projects are allocated to a category, based on extensive discussions with a range of partners, and on information included within the Implementation Plan of Shropshire’s Local Development Plan: https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/media/8603/ldf-implementation-plan-2016- 17.pdf. Projects will be allocated to one of the three categories identified below: • Priority A Projects • Priority B Projects • Neighbourhood Projects The table below and overleaf gives further information about the categories. Category Description Examples Priority A This is infrastructure which will unlock Improvements to drainage in development.

Discussions have also taken place with relevant departments across Shropshire Council, and with external providers of strategic infrastructure. However, please be aware that this table does not commit any partner to undertake specific activity, as priorities and resources are subject to change. Further, whilst Shropshire Council will continue to support its Town and Parish Councils to identify infrastructure needs within the Place Plan area, the final decision on the level of priority given to specific infrastructure projects rests with Shropshire Council, based on the evidence gathering noted above. Projects have been presented in two tables: the first covering Priority A and Priority B projects, and the second covering Neighbourhood projects. Please note that completed projects will be included in a separate supporting document. This document will be made available on Shropshire Council’s website, alongside the Place Plans themselves. 7 Table 1: Priority A and Priority B Projects Project Estimated Potential Funding Partners Notes Cost Sources Priority A Projects Economic Opportunities Oswestry Innovation Park - delivery of 22.7 £13.2 million UK Government, Shropshire Project under discussion. hectares of strategic employment land to drive private sector, Council, private long-term sustainability in Oswestry and Shropshire sector Shropshire Council has a statutory duty to ensure create the conditions for employment growth.

Of these transcripts the earliest known to exist is one in the Library at Brogyntyn.

The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first editiun, edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. The second was published in Mr.

  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.
